Landscape of Auvergne, in the very heart of France.
View of the Loire river.
I tried to depict the play of light on the water, creating delicate reflections that invite the viewer to silent contemplation. The color palette, ranging from the deep blue of the water to the warm tones of the stones and the bottom, evokes summer days when time seems to stand still.
This painting is painted with professional grade oil colors on a primed canvas. I prepare myself my canvases to create a texture specific to my painting needs and to insure them maximum longevity.
The white finish of the sides of the canvas allows, if you wish, a hanging without a frame.
